The Last Mission of the Living by Rhiannon Frater Promo Blitz

The Last Mission of the Living

Author: Rhiannon Frater

Publication Date: August 28, 2014

Genre: Adult, Horror, Post-Apocalyptic, Zombies

Humanity teeters on the brink of extinction…

Vanguard Lindsay
Rooney has faced the undead hordes of Inferi Scourge and lived to tell
the tale, but she has also suffered horrible losses. Like millions of
other civilians, she had hoped that The Bastion would recover after a
team of modified soldiers eradicated the undead hordes of Inferi Scourge
that infested their valley. Yet the city still crumbles around them,
along with any chance of survival.

Lindsey’s growing friendship
with Torran MacDonald, an officer with the Science Warfare division, is
her only solace as the decline of the city continues. When food riots
fill the streets, martial law is enacted, and the upper echelons of
government battle for control of the city, Lindsey is conscripted by her
superiors to embark on a dangerous mission into the dead world beyond
The Bastion. To add even more complications, Torran and the SWD join the
squad.

Soon, Lindsey realizes that her mission is more than what
it seems, and there are secrets that could both destroy The Bastion and
take her life.

Rhiannon Frater

Rhiannon Frater is the award-winning author of over a dozen books,
including the As the World Dies zombie trilogy (Tor), as well as
independent works such as The Last Bastion of the Living (declared the
#1 Zombie Release of 2012 by Explorations Fantasy Blog and the #1 Zombie
Novel of the Decade by B&N Book Blog), and other horror novels. In
2014, her newest horror novel, The Mesmerized, will be released
by Permuted Press. Dead Spots will be published in 2015 by Tor. She was
born and raised a Texan and presently lives in Austin, Texas with her
husband and furry children (a.k.a pets). She loves scary movies, sci-fi
and horror shows, playing video games, cooking, dyeing her hair weird
colors, and shopping for Betsey Johnson purses and shoes.

As the other half of the
squad was added to his helmet visual, he sucked in a deep breath. They were
also reported as Killed In Action. Stunned, he swallowed the hard lump forming
in his throat. What was going on?

“Sir?” Jonas queried his
voice unsteady.

“Watch that door! Smyth, if
you can hear me respond now!”

Through the static came the
sound of someone choking.

The line hissed and buzzed
for a long second, then a woman’s voice that was not Rosario’s said, “Don’t
worry. She’ll come for you.”

A wave of horror washed over
Torran and plunged him into the blackest depths of despair. They were all dead.
Just like before outside the wall when the expanding perimeter fence had failed
and the Inferi Scourge had swarmed the soldiers.

“Sir?”

The sound of Goodwin’s voice
tugged Torran’s attention back to the present. Staring at the empty doorway
shimmering in an ominous pale gray in the night vision filter, Torran gathered
his thoughts, and then switched the comm again. “Base, I have lost all
communication with my squad and they’re being reported as KIA. We are under
attack from the abnormal Inferi Scourge. We need immediate backup to this
location.”

The popping and static
echoing through his helmet sent a surge of adrenaline through his system. For
several seconds, he feared there wasn’t going to be a response, but then a
voice said, “Master Seeker, you’re to hold position until we can send a
tiltrotor with reinforcements. All units are all presently engaged.”

“We can’t hold this
position,” Torran answered curtly. If the rest of the squad was dead, then he
had to save Goodwin and Jonas as well as himself. He’d been a sole survivor of
a squad before and the burden of that label still weighed on his soul.

“You have your orders to
secure and hold that area,” came the reply.

“We’re dealing with a pocket
of the Abscrags--”

“You have your--”

There were footsteps in the
hallway.

“--and we are about to be
overrun!”

Where can you get yours?
